In addition to the primary elements tungsten, nickel, and iron, tungsten-nickel-iron alloy contains trace impurity elements such as hydrogen, oxygen, carbon, sulfur, and phosphorus. These impurities can compromise grain boundary integrity, form brittle phases, and reduce the alloy’s conductivity, high-temperature strength, and radiation resistance. Control is achieved through raw material purification and process optimization, such as vacuum sintering. The following outlines the impact of key impurity elements on alloy performance.
